Guide is only SHOULD come from experienced manager who win a lot of battles with high levels like July Forth...So Ur Thread Title is not appropriate when you are at only level 2..the Fresh level of all..
At level 2, U only need to meet the same level 2 opponent in CUP..U don't meet any level 3/4/5 so it is quite Easy..to be honest..U have long long way to go..Can say it is just very Fresh level in game[/B]...

And Sometimes formation is important But sometimes Troll stood up other side when they are stronger but simply bad luck.. No matter what they do...Not meant the weak team is better or his strategy is good..
If you all the way to Final beat all stronger and better quality or higher level opponents in CUP then your formation is vital...
Anyway, Congrats to your Win!!!

1) A quality difference of 5.3 star is a significantly big difference at level 2...
2) It like a 4 star beating a 5 star team...
3) Plus I am 100% sure that the quality difference of starting 11 of his opponent would be even more big than 5.3......

That word "guide" wasn't meant to understand it literally but rather a funny and more interesting thread. And about his quality, I considered his team to be much stronger because everyone with the level 2, I played with, was at max 22 of quality....
Moreover, his league, from his 26 matches, 25 won and 1 tied so I think he was little bit tougher.

As I remember, at level 2, even strong teams may have many weaknesses in some positions because of lack of tokens and MONEY (cash flow is poor at that time, and less young players to sell). Moreover, red medical packs are slowly generated. Near the end of the seasons, there are usually many injuries that the available red medical packs are sufficient recover all major players.
